No, but it may be scripted. Example pulled from list archive:

    gpg --check-sigs| grep "User ID not found"|cut -b 14-21| sort -u| \
	xargs gpg --recv-keys

It may take several runs to get a complete closure of all available signing keys.

Backup pubring.gpg first. You may not wish to keep all those extra keys
